Control is an Illusion

Control: to exercise influence over, to suggest or dictate the behavior of

: influence or authority over

: restraint or ability to control one's emotions

Sorry folks, but control over anything but your own actions is an illusion. The ONLY thing you can control is what you think, say and do. Period.

You cannot control your Mom, you cannot control your children, you cannot control your boss at work, and you cannot control the driver on the highway. You can control if you eat too much or exercise, or if you pray or read your Bible.

The bible says one of the fruits of the Spirit is self-control. Hence, my point. Self.

Psalm 19:14 says," May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be pleasing to you God."

Are you thinking pure thoughts? Happy, pleasant thoughts? Are you speaking life and love to others?

Think about that......
